Just returned from Bournemouth. Total bill £57+ to park a PA-28 and leave again the following day. The staff were very good but facilities very limited. ATC ok but had to orbit on base leg for 10+ minutes due wake vortex and other traffic - not ATC's fault.

If there were any other airfields nearby I'd have gone there but if you are visiting a friend in Bournemouth you have to grit your teeth and pay the dosh. However, I won't be back in a hurry - due to the cost not my friend !!

My innocent initial posting has caused some interesting comments !! The bottom line is that Bournemouth don't want GA and the price is designed to put most people off. It will work.

Have a nice day.
